#humanism

When interrogating activists, Russian #cops sometimes ask whether you support “the Ukrainian #ideology”. You inevitably wonder what that is. It happens that an activist replies with a counterquestion: “What do you mean by ‘the Ukrainian ideology'”? And the enforcer of Russian law says: “You must know. You are an educated person, aren’t you?”
Is there an English, French or Spanish ideology? The French one is claimed to exist. As one emigrant said, “It is #liberty, #equality, fraternity and #secularity (the #church has no dominance over principles of secular humanism). This is literally an official formula”. However, a question remains of why a certain nation became for Russians a personification of any ideology. Since the #USSR collapsed, no other former republic of the union has become such a personification. A Nihilist reporter talked with Ukrainians and Russians about this phenomenon and the peculiarities of #police mentality.
There is an opinion that Russians believe the very idea of the existence of the Ukrainian language and #culture, as well as of an independent Ukrainian state, to be a hostile ideology. Some argue that the police, out of their ignorance, simply do not understand the meaning of the term, confusing “ideology” with #pacifism, #humanism or who knows what.

Social psychologists like Jung often see the #government as a stand-in for authority figures like parents. Indeed, Bainbridge said, one might analogize the draw to #conspiracy theories and #NewAge #religion|s as children acting out when their "parents" (meaning, the #state) are not taking care of them properly.
"If the parent isn't taking care of a child, then the child acts out, right? The child is angry because it's not getting its needs met," Bainbridge said. "And there are lots of people, like left-progressives, who asked: 'How did #Trump get elected?' But once you really look into it, you're like, that was obvious because there's a huge part of #America that's in between #NewYork and #LA, and those people are fed up and they feel forgotten."
Bainbridge says the way out of this conundrum, from a Jungian perspective, is to embrace #humanism and empathy.
